FAQs about Jeddah

If I am a non-Muslim travelling to Jeddah, do I still have to be careful about my dressing?
Jeddah is a city that is slightly liberal in terms of implementation of religion when compared to other cities in Saudi Arabia though this does not mean you can travel around without being respectful to the moralistic customs and norms of the locals. In Jeddah it is not a compulsion for women to wear the accustomed dress called the abaya but being fully dressed up is an obligation. However, if you wish to avoid unwanted attention from the people around it is suggested that you wear the local dress, as the saying goes, "when in Rome, do as the Romans do." Likewise, locals are reluctant to warmly welcome men with long hair and a French beard.
